Abstract

This study introduces and formalizes lazy soundness in Robustness Diagrams with Loop and Time controls (RDLTs), focusing on systems with parallel activities. Lazy soundness is a relaxation of classical soundness that tolerates the non-completion of certain concurrent activities, provided that exactly one valid execution path leads to system completion. To support this, the study defines Complete Activity Structures (CAS) from Maximal Activity Structures (MAS) and proposes structural conditions and algorithms to verify lazy soundness. The Lazy RDLT Soundness Verification Algorithm (LRSVA) is presented along with its time and space complexity analysis. A modified complaint processing system is used to illustrate the framework, where the algorithm is applied under conditions of limited shared resources. Overall, the work advances theoretical insights into concurrent system verification and paves the way for future research in automated and soundness checking for parallel workflows.
